AbstractPurpose -The purpose of this paper is to explain and come to an understanding of origin and growth relating to the concept of environment and sustainable development in domestic and international laws; also to show the rationality of enlisting the right to the environment as a basic right in the constitution, that would help to protect this value from the detrimental activities of private entities and states, and also to show the rationality of institutional development. Design/methodology/approach -This paper attempts to focus on environment and sustainable development in Bangladesh. The research is based upon theoretical sources and empirical data. Findings -An environment is a set of natural, artificial or man-made, physical, chemical and biological elements that make the existence, transformation and development of living organisms possible. The appearance of the environmental law arose from the need to conserve the environment in order to avoid its destruction and, as a result, the danger that an adequate quality of life might disappear. By conservation, we understand all those measures that are necessary to preserve the environment and natural resources. In modern times, human development corresponds to the concept of sustainable development and environment. It is a transverse theme derived from joint consideration of the issue of the environment and environmental protection, and of all that concerns production in the development of a country or nation. Originality/value -The paper is original in calling for making the constitution a weapon, in as much as the environment should be fit for human development so that productive activities may meet present needs without compromising those of future generations. The environment is an independent value and needs as strict protection as other commonly agreed values, such as the right to property, or the right to life and health.
This paper examines some competing legal frameworks that governments, NGOs, and intergovernmental organizations are using to conceptualize the intersection of human rights and intellectual property. Among the two approaches examined, the first approach views the two areas of law as in fundamental conflict, with strong intellectual property protection standards in particular those of the TRIPS Agreement undermining a broad spectrum of human rights. The second approach sees both areas of law as concerned with the same basic question .This paper aims to critically analyze different provisions of the intellectual property and to search for the implications of them for the developing countries in line with the Human right. Finally an attempt is made to explore ways and means in mitigating or addressing the problems arising out of the TRIPS which are peculiar to the developing countries.
International refugee law is a part of international human rights law, which advocates for the protection and assistance of refugees around the world. Presently the problem of refugee and internally displaced persons (IDPs) aremajor challenging issues of the globe. The Greek philosopher Euripides, in 431, recognized that “there is no greater sorrow on earth than the loss of owns native land.1 ” However, where humankind has existed there have been refugees as well. So refugee problem is not a new phenomenon, it has a long historical background. The huge influx of Rohingya refugees has begun from the beginning of this century and number has gradually increased from that period. Now it is a major concern of international human rights and humanitarian law in Bangladesh.2 The paper critically analysis and tries to identifies the international law on refugees and the influx of Rohingya refugees being faced by Bangladesh over the years. The paper deals with theConvention Relating to the Status of Refugees 1951 for the protection and assistance of the refugees and regional instruments adopted to address the refugees’ situation in the South Asian region.3
